Version information

Version 1.17.0•for Jira Data Center 7.6.0 - 11.3.8

Release date: Jul 16th 2026
Summary: Reliability improvements for large migrations and bug fixes
Details: This release improves the reliability of migrations, especially for customers with large datasets or SQL Server databases. Attachment migration now streams files directly during upload instead of loading them into memory, greatly reducing the risk of out-of-memory failures with large attachments. SQL Server customers will see fixes for failures caused by non-default database schemas and bulk user query limits. Workflow migration now correctly carries over Fire Issue Event post-functions with their event type mappings. Import-phase validation covers additional fields including priority names, filter names, and filter subscription details, giving administrators earlier feedback before migration. Analytics no longer include project identifiers in attachment failure events, improving privacy. Several internal feature flags have been cleaned up.
